SHELTER COVE (0Q5)

Ocean Strip at the Lost Coast

Imagine a place where the pavement ends and the wild Pacific begins. Shelter Cove Airport (0Q5) isn't just a landing strip; it’s your front-row seat to the legendary Lost Coast, California's most secluded and breathtaking coastline. Touch Down in Paradise Forget the long, winding drive. Soar over the rugged peaks of the King Range and touch down on a 3,400-foot runway that sits literally feet from the ocean spray. Surrounded by a lush 9-hole golf course and charming seaside cottages, this is aviation at its most scenic.
